Confirming that this bug exists in mozilla firefox 3 beta 3

$ apt-cache policy firefox
firefox:
  Installed: 3.0~b3+nobinonly-0ubuntu4
  Candidate: 3.0~b3+nobinonly-0ubuntu4

I'll add compiz just in case, although it looks like it just happens in firefox

I've noticed that this happens when you specifically mouse over the buttons minimize - maximize - close of the titlebar
They are coloured just as if it's a disabled window and not an active one
